The King County Medical Examiner’s Office has not released details, according to the report.

Rogers, who was drafted by the Lions seventh overall in 1987, played four years in the NFL with Detroit, Buffalo and Tampa Bay. He spent a year in a jail after he killed three teenagers in a DUI crash in October 1988, in Pontiac, Mich. His blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit, and he was found guilty of negligent homicide.

He returned to the NFL in 1991 with the Bills but was out of the league for good after playing with the Buccaneers in 1992 .

Rogers was sentenced to another year in prison in December 2011 after his sixth drunk driving conviction. He was arrested this month on a domestic violence charge after his wife accused him of hitting her, the Times reported. Rogers pleaded not guilty to the charge.

Rogers’ older brother, Don Rogers, was an All-American safety at UCLA and was a 1984 first-round pick of the Cleveland Browns. At age 23, Don Rogers died in 1986 of a heart attack caused by a cocaine overdose.
